KMFDM have been around for well over 20 years and the name is familiar to many the world over. Starting out in < ?xml:namespace prefix = st1 ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:smarttags" />Paris, France then relocating to the US they gained a tremendous following allowing them to continue making noise all over the planet.

This release is their 25th album which is quite an accomplishment. Filled with guitar, programming sounds and interesting vocals this disc may not be everyone’s cup of tea. The songs “Superpower” and “I Am What I Am” are clearly the 2 standouts on the CD. While laden with keyboards the songwriting prevails and makes the songs standout from the rest. The song “Saft Und Kraft” is a fast paced track with some excellent drum beats happening.

 

A difficult sound to get used to but worth the time. It has some metal ingredients as well which make it worthwhile. It is what it is.
